With a 4 year old and 2 year old, I rarely get time to pamper myself. Baby #3 will be here by the end of the month, so I have a feeling my "me time" will soon dwindle even more. I will have to find new ways to relax-I doubt I'll get many long baths for a while. Green Mountain Coffee came to my rescue and sent an Escape pack including Café Escapes® K-Cup® packs.

One of my cravings during this pregnancy has been hot chocolate, so I was incredibly excited about this pack. I may not have much time once baby comes to pamper myself, but grabbing a cup of hot chocolate will be easier than ever with my Keurig machine. I simply pop a K-cup into the machine and my hot chocolate is ready in seconds.

Use the code, AM0010-3567, for 15% off Café Escapes and free standard shipping (within the U.S. with no minimum order) at www.GreenMountainCoffee.com, through February 16th. Be sure to check out facebook to learn more.

To pamper myself, I always take a bubble bath with candles (and of course a glass of wine) and wrap my hair in a moisturizing mask. I put tea bags on my eyes and put on some relaxing music like Enya and take a map while my hair sucks up the moisture and I get a much needed rest. davisesq212 at aol dot com

Since I got hurt, I haven't done nearly as much as I should have. Somehow between all the doctors, hospitals, surgeries, therapies, you name it, pampering just has kinda passed me by the wayside. It's something I'm definitely working on changing.

Oh, I know! One thing I don't miss is my Oil of Olay. My grandma taught me to do it years ago and I'm still faithful to it. :-)

I pamper myself by taking a shower to my self. I also have a 4 year old and a 2 year old so I love ever moment I can get. Not to mention I'm 36 weeks pregnant with #3 (due March 3rd) so relaxing moments are rare. A nice quiet and hot shower with all my body washes, shampoos, facial cleansers, etc is my kind of relaxing.

To PAMPER myself... I started to say nothing, but that's not true! I used to get manicures 2x a month but since I've lost my job, I'm having to do it myself. And I try to do a facial 2x a week, because it helps your skincare work better. ((1955nursehjc4me(at)myway(dot)com)) Thanks for the chance....

Well, it's not much, and I don't really think of it as pampering so much as 'self-maintenance', but once a week I spend an afternoon doing a facial (steam, mask, treatment, moisturize), whitening my teeth, plucking anything that needs plucked and shaving. I think of it as 'necessary', but if I'm honest, it's a couple of hours I spend alone in the bathroom taking care of ME! :)
